The Princess wore white to be reminded of her innocence, and how tragic her fall would be if ever she were to obtain carnal knowledge. Silently navigating the castle passageways, at Noon she came upon her magic Sun Beam. "Oh so faithful you come to me each day. When I dance you enter into me, penetrating me with your warmth, caressing my pale skin into golden fabric. How blissful I feel when you flood me with your essence. Rise Me, Oh Please Rise Me Up to be with you in the Heavens and taste the essence of your Nature. Please let me be your symbol of purity. Let me be Perfection."

2015 Hunt Country Vineyards Finger Lakes Seyval Blanc 750 mL

Manufacturer: Hunt Country Vineyards
Brand: Hunt Country Vineyards

The little-known Seyval Blanc grape consistently produces a white wine with beautifully fruit and mineral flavors, reminiscent of Chablis. The 2013 growing season produced grapes with excellent ripeness and vibrant flavors that we captured in the wine with little cellar work ... just the way we like it! It is particularly delicious with herb-seasoned or lightly-barbecued poultry, white fish and seafood. Our Seyvals have been honored with 4 Gold and Double Gold medals in major competitions since 2011. - winemaker Jonathan Hunt.

2013 The Ojai Vineyard Solomon Hills Chardonnay 750 mL

Manufacturer: The Ojai Vineyard
Brand: The Ojai Vineyard

I love the fine fruit and excellent balance this vineyard gives. Solomon Hills is on the western edge of the Santa Maria Valley Appellation, so it's climatically very cool. Planted to the Dijon clones of chardonnay, it has none of the typical California style of tropical fruitiness. It's all lemon curd, pine and minerals--making it a great match with rich chicken dishes made with lots of cream. The Chardonnay Solomon Hills comes across as elegant and refined. A delicate aroma of wet stones with a touch of nutmeg entices the palate. The wine follows through with a thick texture that is mineral, tangy/salty, and finishes with an aftertaste of poached pears. Sublime.

Our estate vines are situated on a sloping south-west exposure at a 1,560 foot elevation in the cool-climate Santa Cruz Mountains. Located well above the fog line of Monterey Bay, the vines enjoy a long growing season marked by warm days and cool mountain nights.
